Herniated Disc in Back

A herniated disc in the back is one of the most painful conditions a person could experience. In addition to pain, this condition will also lead to a lot of functional problems, because the nerves in the back control everything in the body.

The symptoms related to a herniated disc in the back will vary depending on where the injured disc is, and they can be very unpredictable. A person may experience pain one day, and have a good day the next. I call this the roller coaster ride, because it really can vary quite dramatically.

The most common cause of a herniated disc in the back is trauma (such as a car accident, or lifting something heavy), but it can also occur due to small injuries that occur over a long period of time. These injuries can add up and result in a disc bulge.

Most doctors will treat a herniated disc in the back using medications, physical therapy, pain injections, and surgery (as a last resort). Unfortunately, these treatments do not usually provide lasting relief, and many people won’t respond to them at all.

Many doctors are unaware of all of the options available – especially when it comes to natural, alternative forms of therapy for a herniated disc in the back. Many of these options are more effective than traditional medical treatments, so it is very important that you research all of your options.
